Re: John Walters yelling at ref over radio

Changing gears....but it wasn't near as bad as the guy in the crowd from OSU yelling from the stands in the biggest Hick voice ever.
"you need to Quit, You need to quit, You suck, You need to quit, You are terrible, you need to quit" over and over again when the refs where tyring to put time on the clock after babb got fouled at the end....lol

I couldn't get the game either. None of our locals picked it up, even their digital sub-channel showed the Duke game. I set my DVR to record it on Comcast and I get home from a family thing and flip it on and it's blacked out. Couldn't figure out why since none of our locals carried it.

Re: John Walters yelling at ref over radio

It was pretty great. The Godfather was yelling at the refs for a five second call at the end of the game. I couldn't watch, so can anyone tell me. Was the refs arm moving like he was counting the whole time, and did he ever give the "clear" signal anywhere during the play? TIA

Re: John Walters yelling at ref over radio

You know, I understand all the ref bashing but we need to learn to close, regardless of what color undershirt the ref wears. We hit more free throws, we grab some more boards, and make layups and we win these close games. Refs don't stop your shots from going in. The thing that made me most upset is how they made ALL their +1 chances. Every shooting foul went in.

He separated his arms to signal that the count would be reset once or twice, but it was completely unwarranted.

Re: John Walters yelling at ref over radio

If cyclones.tv shows a video replay of the game, I don't know if I actually want to watch it. When just listening on the radio, I didn't feel compelled to break things. Watching it, though, it sounds like I might want to kick my dog or something.

Re: John Walters yelling at ref over radio

Did not think the game was any differently called than most games until the weird, late call on Ejim's blocked shot then the lack of the 5-second call. Cylburn played tight defense for the better part of 8 seconds. Crew totally missed it, and a novice could see it.

Best is not to get to that point at all, but if we had Kansas or Duke on our uni's, then that call gets made.
